★★★★★Dawn ShookOur children love Camp River Ridge! CRR demonstrates the ability to have absolute fun in your faith! They love mass/adoration, hiking, the lake, fishing, archery, camp fire activies, skits, volleyball, and more! The indoor amenities keep getting better and better too - with the addition of indoor bathrooms and showers. We can't say enough great things about our experiences at this Camp.
★★★★★Mark OlligesI have sent my 11 year old nephew to Camp Riverridge for the past two years. He just attended the 2018 Daniel Boone Camp. If you want your child to have a great time with traditional catholic beliefs, this is the place. My nephew has had a great time and he has grown spiritually. The camp director has bent over backwards to make the camp affordable. My nephew has begged me to send him back again and I will.
★★★★★Lisa WeisbrodThis is an amazing camp!! The priests, brothers, missionaries, and counselors who run the camps and retreats are top notch, the property is beautiful, the food is great and there is a perfect blend of faith and fun! Kids grow closer to Christ while building comradeship with their peers! I have sent my sons here for 17 years and they have always had a wonderful experience!
★★★★★Stanislav KovatsenkoMy son likes the camp very much. From parent perspective I am very happy that he received religion education in combination with fun, games, and outdoor activities, playing with other boys. I hope he realized that there is much more joy and excitement in real world apart from computer games and TV. The place is beautiful, filled with adventures and fun. Thanks a lot to priests and everyone who made it happen. God bless!
